The Range Selector
Eliminates
the danger
of dropping
tools and
keeps them
close at hand.
Tool Lanyard is a
new range of height
safety products from
RidgeGear specifically
designed to eradicate
injuries from falling
tools, a significant
cause of fatalities in
the workplace.
Made in the EU at our
factory in Leek, England,
our Tool Lanyard range is
manufactured to the
same high standards as
our renowned harnesses
and lanyards, so you can
be sure of the quality
from start to finish.
TOOL LANYARDS
Our lanyards come in three different ranges so whatever your
requirement, we have a lanyard to suit your needs.
COLOUR CODED LABELS
Easy capacity identification.
Standard
High quality flat webbing for basic tool restraint.
Please be aware this is only a guide, you should always
weigh your own tools before deciding which Tool Lanyard
to use. Check individual Tool Lanyard information for
actual capacity.
Elastic
Webbing with added elastication for ease of movement and
convenience and basic energy absorbing properties.
CONNECTION LOOP
Shock Absorbers
Made from either advanced Kinetic webbing
or incorporating a neat shock pack,
these lanyards are the pinnacle
of tool safety. In the event
of dropping a heavy tool,
they significantly minimise
the risk of the user
being pulled off a
ladder or platform by
drastically reducing
the peak loads.
For karabiner connection
to harness.
For simple, direct
connection of tools.
Our lanyards have a range
of tethering options that
can be easily choked
around tools with a
captive handle or
waisted tools.
CONNECTORS
In addition to tethers, we have a range of
unique connectors designed to make it easy
to attach almost any of your existing tools.

Our Standard lanyards are designed
to be our entry level product that
does the job perfectly.

They are all made from our high quality
20mm flat webbing which is specially
treated to be water repellent and resistant
to oil and grease.
Elastic Range
Sales Hotline: 01538 392616
The Elastic range of lanyards is the
next step in tool arrest, allowing
the user greater flexibility and
usability.
RTLE 1
ELASTIC TOOL LANYARD WITH CHOKE LOOP
MAX.
CAPACITY
5kg
These are all made from our high quality
20mm elasticated webbing. The benefit
of using elasticated webbing is less slack,
reducing any trip or snag hazards and
keeping all your equipment closer to
your body while also offering basic shock
absorption.
As well as the choke loop method of
connecting a tool, the Standard range has
the option of a clip buckle lanyard (RTLS2).
This lanyard allows the user to keep
several small tools looped, so when a
particular tool is needed it can be swiftly
connected onto the lanyard using the
clip buckle.

fall protection built in.

MAX.
CAPACITY

If a user drops a heavy tool while working
at height, there is a very real danger that
they could be pulled off a ladder or
platform by the falling tool. Our Shock
Absorber range is specifically designed to
significantly reduce that risk.
The range is split into two: the unique
Shock Pack version and the top-of-therange Kinetic version, both offering
outstanding safety characteristics.

DISTANCE BENEFITS OF

TOOL LANYARD.

CAPACITY
10kg
Our Kinetic tool lanyards are our top-of-therange product offering unrivalled protection
for the user.
Kinetic is our unique webbing specially designed and
developed to reduce the potentially devastating
shock involved in the event of a fall. It was originally
developed for our fall arrest lanyards but the principle
is exactly the same and equally important in the event
of a falling tool.
Length:
1.25 metres
Web material:
20mm Water Repellent Polyester
Webbing strength:
> 1000 kg
Tool attachment:
210mm Choke Loop
A Kinetic tool lanyard significantly reduces the risk of
a dropped tool dragging the user off a platform and,
because the deployed distance is less than the shock
pack tool lanyard, it can reduce the risk below too.

One of the additional benefits of using a

deployed it can carry the tool beyond
the user’s feet, further reducing injury
from a swinging tool.

THE SHOCK ABSORBING
BENEFITS EXPLAINED.
Using our extensive in-house testing lab, we
are able to show the radical reduction in the
forces exerted on the user and the virtual
eradication of the dangerous ‘bouncing’
effect when using one of our Shock Absorber
Tool Lanyards.
The table opposite shows the force traces
from our tests when a 10kg tool is dropped
from a height of just 2.5 metres. You can see
that with a standard tool lanyard a 10kg tool
will be nearly 30 times its original weight!
NOTE: Karabiners sold separately. See Connectors page.

WHICH CONNECTOR DO
I NEED FOR MY TOOLS?
We’re sure you’ll find your own favourite and
safest way of connecting depending on your tools,
but here is a short guide to the most common
tools and recommended methods of tethering.
Well, we’ve got that covered too,
because with our Tool Ties you can
connect your existing tool by simply
tightening around an appropriate
section.
